You will lie to your mom and tell her you're getting better. You're getting worse. Get help soon. No matter how many knives you throw into the woods, you're still going to cut. Just, be prepared for what's to come, but know you aren't alone.

 Break-ups happen for a reason. Even if he's trying to come back to you, you already know something has changed. Believe in yourself.

 When you look at your husband to be at the altar, and he won't look at you it means he doens't love you. Even if you are 7 months pregnant you should run. But you stay and think it's all your fault. It's NOT. He's just love handicapped. But your two lovely children are not, and neither are you!

 I know he ignores you even though you know you're meant to be together. But don't worry too much about it. This time in four years he'll know you are meant for him too.

 Just because Dad left, doesn't mean all guys will.

 Sit in the front seat next to Daniel. Take out the ear buds. Tell him you love him. You won't get another chance.

 Don't settle when it comes to friendships. You don't deserve to be taken for granted and treated so poorly. You're an amazing friend. And don't worry, in college you'll find people who realize this and love you and treat you better than you've ever imagined.

 Your mother is wrong. You're beautiful. You don't have to be the things she wanted to be but couldn't, and you can have an opinion too. You can go into this world and conquer anything. You're pretty and you're smart. Don't listen to her when she says otherwise. She's wrong.
